General Comments:

Went to lepinet north due to my first choice being cancelled. I’ve fished south but first time on north side.
It’s a longer range to find the head of fish but still a Great Lake either side, action was plenty but for me I only managed up to 36lb. But on the north side my week a 57, 48, couple 40s came out. Plus the big sturgeon 3 times.
But for me in particular this week was one of my best on a bank in France meeting great people. 2 lads Mark & Joe from Liverpool and farther and son from Carlisle great company all got on well. It was a great week. Cheers boys!

Details of your catches:

Very slow week sadly. Swim 8 doubled up. Mate had 2 29lb + 36lb within 6 hours then nothing all week after. I blanked until Weds and ended on 4 mirrors to 32lb and a grassie 32lb. Everyone struggled in middle lake swims on both sides North and South. Fish seemed as usual to be at either end of the lake.

Conditions were perfect as well so it’s odd. Been a few times and this is the slowest trip. Nice lake, very nice owners/bailiff. Probably still go back

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

18mm Wafters worked but watch out for the odd big bream. Sit on the spots and wait for it to happen rather than panic and swift spots

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes always good usual need a second toilet though and keep the loo roll topped up… this is regular feedback but still the same. Everything else is great

Were you happy with them?

Yes

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes but swim choice is vital like most lakes to be fair

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes 100%

Details of your catches:

20 bream, tench
12 carp ranging from 20lb to 41lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Double 20mm boillies to avoid bream.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes clean, hot showers, but only one toilet, could do with another. Dangerous step outside toilet needs to be safer.

Were you happy with them?

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes would recommend, will return.
But note to owners. It would be better if cars do not constantly drive round to toilets or showers!
We ordered a boat as being in swim 11, really needed for snags, but these were all given out when we arrived. We were told not before 2pm arrival… other anglers were bivvied up already when we arrived. Also bailiff said ring any problems or need anything, we wanted bait on Wednesday but told wouldn’t be until Friday as they only come round every other day.

General Comments:

Overall good lake, needs a few things sorting. Too many bream.

*Angling Lines note* Thank you for your feedback. We have discussed all points raised with the owner, the issue with the boat should not have happened and will not in the future - they apologise for this, and note they were able to supply a back-up boat for your week but acknowledge it was not the same type as the rest. The bailiff does visit every other day as they have other lakes they manage too, if last minute extra bait is needed it can only be delivered on these days unfortunately.

Details of your catches:

Lost count on the amount of fish. Fish up to 47lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Bottom and pop up both worked

Were the facilities what you expected?

Very good.....I think the only comments I could leave would be that they need an extra loo and that they also need to replace the brick being used as a step into the showers and loo with a proper step. I twisted my ankle when coming out of the toilet as the loose brick moved when I stood on it.

*Angling Lines note* Thank you for letting us know, we will pass this on to the owner.
